Wolfgang Tiemann is not only the most important landscape painter of northern Germany but also a brilliant drawer and printer focused on man, landscape, history and myth. “You can’t step into a river twice because all being is in a constant flow.” The deep essence of the natural philosophy of Heraclitus is resting in the depths of Tiemann’s moved colorful landscapes like an inviolable motivation. Tiemann’s landscapes are playing in their form of possibility. They circle around the diversities of existence whose instant he is giving the colored appearance of the unique. A uniqueness that passes by and does last for the moment in the language of art only – preserved as something transient and escaping, as a second of the passing present and as an anticipation of what will be emerging. Pictures of existence in the flow of time.
